Twitter posts are limited to 140 "characters", which turns out to mean code points in UTF8 (not the only or even most intuitive measure). Was this determined by a (likely outdated) technical limitation, or is there a published UX rationale?

I contend that this question is not quite the same as ux.stackexchange.com/questions/107324/… . This question specifically asks about why the "character" limit counts UTF-8 code points, which the other question (and answer) does not address at all. At any rate, Twitter explains the rationale for how the limit is measured. – jamesdlin Jun 11 '17 at 3:15
